Seems my caliper pots are sticking and now at the stage where they won't move at all now, like nothing when the brake is pumped, solution to this anyone ???
Give us a bit more info.
Front Caliper = 4 pot?
All pots stuck or just 1?
What have you done to get them stuck? I.E been pushing them back in?
If only 1 pot is cocked and the other 3 loose, when you pull the lever, all effort will go to the 3 loose pots?
Get some wd40 sprayed on the pots so the WD40 goes down between the pots and caliper.
I was born into Trials, and also rode a road bike so i was blessed to be able to cope with the differance.
Having said that i can't get on with anything less than a 300.
Anyway to the point, My bezzie mate rides a gixxer, and when i took him down the woods ( for a go on the bike!!!!! Nowt else!!!!)
He couldn't ride a trials bike to save his life.
Am i babbling on.
Ok, so this lass rides a 1000 gixxer, Trials is a totally differant dicipline and a 250 over rocks may feel more unstable than a 1000 gixer in a nasty tank slapper.
So the morale of my long winded babble, had strong ale story is........ I've forgoten the question hahahaha whoops.
Oh yeah bird on a bike!!!! Yeah it dosen't matter, there totally differant. Fact his she can ride a bike so has a head start. Get a 250!!!
But what about the fact that area is where most people, correct me if i'm wrong. Grab that area with there hands to help somebody, or get the bike yourself out of trouble.
I'm liking the bike, im not liking where that exhast is though.
Is it something the factory have looked into. Fair doooooooos, it may ride nice. But have they done any thoughts about how people physically handle the bikes?
Having said this, Gassers front pipe is in perfect place for nice burns when the bike falls on you. !
Moving the bars forward of the clamps, makes for better trick riding and also makes the bike more 'Twitchy' but more useable.
It moves your bodies weight further forward from centre.
It's a difficult one to explain in writing.
Easy thing is try it in different positions. You will see what i mean.
Go extreme, start with them really far back, then move them forward a few cm's at a time. This will give you a good idea of how it effects the bike.
Set a pretty easy section up, with tight turns and a semi decent sized rock to try get up and over. Make sure you ride the same route with each alteration.
Well assuming these guys are affiliated to either a club or atleast still go to a club to watch, How about contacting clubs. Fair few isn't there though.
Tricky one, how would we do without computers!!!!
What about asking local papers? that costs though!!!
Well i'm bringing my old man down. well not that old. Sure he will know a fair few people and vice versa.
How tidy does that look. Really glad Sherco have fixed all the little problems from the 2010. I'd like to see pics of where the fuel filler is now located!
But now with my Balance Band i can now stand at the top of blackpool tower, on my left foots little toe, whilst spinning a basketball on my left hands little finger.
There fantastic, honestly the world is my oyster!!!!
We get a fantastic turn out at the Horsforth trials, and it's really good to see them younguns shinning through.
It's a no brainer that making an effort for them is the future of the sport.
Personally i'd like to thank all thats involved with the conducted trials, with the extra 8 sections to mark out and extra observer(s).
Looking at the riding skills coming out of some of these youngsters, that effort really needs to be kept upto.
It's also good to see some of the clubs expert riders helping out on techniques too. Inless they already do, maybe some organised training sessions could be organised for the juniors.
your being annoying, 
Could you believe it?

Nope sorry, i refuse to belive Dibs would Leave Shirty!!!
As a team Shirty, Dibs and Jack were superb.
Hopefully Dibs has persuaded Jack to come back and mind for him in 2011.
Nothing against Beta or John, but Dibs would be silly to leave GG.
